About

Azure Voice Live API is a fully managed solution for building low-latency, high-quality speech-to-speech agents through one unified interface. It combines speech recognition, generative AI, and text-to-speech, allowing developers to send audio input and receive audio output, synchronized avatar visuals, and action triggers without manually orchestrating separate backend components or deploying the underlying models. It supports more than 140 speech-to-text locales and over 600 standard voices across 150+ text-to-speech locales, with options for phrase lists, custom speech, custom voices, and brand-aligned avatars. Developers can choose among multiple generative AI models, including GPT-Realtime, GPT-5, GPT-4.1, GPT-4o, Phi, and compatible bring-your-own models, depending on the intelligence, speed, and latency required. Advanced conversational features include noise suppression, echo cancellation, robust interruption detection, and end-of-turn detection.

About

Balabolka is a Text-To-Speech (TTS) program. All computer voices installed on your system are available to Balabolka. The on-screen text can be saved as an audio file. The program can read the clipboard content, extract text from documents, customize font and background color, and control reading from the system tray or by the global hotkeys. Balabolka supports text file formats AZW, AZW3, CHM, DjVu, DOC, DOCX, EML, EPUB, FB2, FB3, HTML, LIT, MD, MOBI, ODP, ODS, ODT, PDB, PRC, PDF, PPT, PPTX, RTF, TCR, WPD, XLS, XLSX. The program uses various versions of Microsoft Speech API (SAPI); it allows to alter a voice's parameters, including rate and pitch. The user can apply a special substitution list to improve the quality of the voice's articulation. This feature is useful when you want to change the spelling of words. The rules for pronunciation correction use the syntax of regular expressions. Balabolka can save the synchronized text in external LRC files or in MP3 tags.
